BattyLizard6 Hi!
In the basic scenario where the database is empty on the new server you'd simply need to copy /opt/clearml/ from the old server to the new. In the case that a data merge is needed I'm not sure, let me check 🙂
BattyLizard6 , I'm afraid that the data merge between servers is not supported in the open source version 🙂
Hi BattyLizard6 ,
This process basically requires merging the databases (mongodb, elasticsearch, files etc.). I think it's something that can be done in the paid version as a service, but usually the best practice, as CostlyOstrich36 said, is to migrate the data when setting up a new server (as explained https://clear.ml/docs/latest/docs/deploying_clearml/clearml_server_linux_mac#backing-up-and-restoring-data-and-configuration ) 🙂
Alternatively, you can just keep the old server (or setup a tiny instance in AWS to hold a legacy server with the old data) just for archival purposes - can that work?
Yes - for upgrading this is what we do. The thing is the first server was a pilot for my team and now we have a proper server for the company (but it was a pilot too so we didn't migrated all the old experiments). To make sure I understand the paid service - do you want to have a short phone call to explain the different options - is it a complete support or can we pay for specific support tasks? It worth mentioning that I'm not the decision maker in the company but I would like to have some information to present
